More Sketches

Seeing as it is Sunday (or it was up until 20 minutes ago, I really should get to bed) I thought I'd share a couple of sketches of M&K with you. Yet again these are me trying to get better with the copics, hope you enjoy:

The Weekend & My Foot

Ahh, such a fun weekend was had.

I got down to London on Friday afternoon and in true Matt fashion I ended up doing something silly.

My first aim was to go and find a shop that sells copic markers (awesome markers imported from Japan that manga artists use) as I want to start using them for Moo & Keo. While on the coach I'd looked on the web (I love you iPhone) and found the list of stockists in London (hardly any). So, off the coach i got and headed straight for the nearest one which was a short walk from Picadilly Circus tube station. I got to the address all ok only to find that that particular art shop had closed down a while ago. *sigh* Anyway, I brought up the next nearest shop on my phone and decided to pop it into google maps to see how far away it was, 11 minutes! Score!

After about 15 mins of walking I checked my location on google maps only to find I was only almost halfway there O_o. After a closer look I noticed my mistake, I hadn't looked and Google Maps had defaulted to working out the time for a car journey not walking *DOH!* Anyway, despite my foot hurting like crazy (more on that in a minute) I decided to walk the rest of the way, got the pens and all is good.

The rest of the weekend rocked, I got to see Moo & Mr Moo and they had an awesome goodbye party. I also got to hang out with some good friends new and old at said party. *Waves at FaiD'ites*

My Foot!
Ok, to cut the backstory short I hurt my foot at the gym, it started off as a small niggle but has ended up 5 weeks later as a painful limp. I went to the doctor finally on Tuesday only to be told that I have to see a specialist as it may be that my foot has always been screwed and nature is only just catching up with me (I may have to have special shoe inserts, joy). I still have a limp while I wait for my appointment to come through but at least I have pain killers now too :D

Looking to the Weekend

Well, it's Tuesday afternoon, but that's almost as good as Wednesday to me this week as I have Friday off! Woo!

My friend and collaborator Moo is leaving this fair (snigger) country soon to go live in South Africa with her hubby and family so I'm heading down to London come Friday for a leaving party weekend. Due to funds (or lack thereof) I'll be sat on a coach for a fair number of hours come 8am but it's about three times cheaper than the cheapest train fair so I can't grumble to much.

Other than that things have been going a little "meh" of late. I've had a stupid cold that has made me useless for most tasks (sorry "MORE useless"). I'm coming round now but still not sleeping too well.

Tonight I'll see if I can make an effort drawing, I need to do next week's strip before I go down to London if I can at all help it.

New Blog

Ok, I've decided to have a blog again. Moo has one now and I'm jealous. He he.

Well, it's Saturday evening and I'm with good friends watching "Strictly Come Dancing" (the UK version of Dancing with the Stars). Tomorrow will hopefully be a Gym and Art day.
